In the context of the installation Tracks&Traces in the window of Constant, Open Sound Lab will organise a series of workshops during the weekends of the Parcours d’artistes St-Gilles/Forest 2016 for anyone interested in computer generated music.

Open Sound Lab is an introduction workshop to computer-aided sound design ; it is also a space to meet, exchange and explore the relation between music and new technologies. Participants are encouraged to create their own music with the help of free software such as LMMS, Audacity and Hydrogen. The workshops are animated by the artist Jonathan Poliart.

It will also be an opportunity to enjoy the installation Tracks&Traces, displaying the visual and sound archives gleaned during the workshops that took place in 2015 at the Cultural Centre Jacques Franck. Sweeping the entire musical spectrum, these sound vignettes allow to understand the infinite possibilities of music created with open source tools.
